Let me make something clear: Referrals aren't BAD. Just don't rely on them as your ONLY source of leads. But a client is a client, and if people are sending them your way, you're not gonna say no! And the best way to bring in more referrals is to deliver a “6 Star Client Experience.” If you've ever been to a 5-star hotel, you know it's the little details that make it luxury: The chocolate on your pillow, the handwritten note, how your bags somehow appear in your room while you're checking in… There's no such thing as a 6-star hotel. It doesn't officially exist. Which is exactly why, as a freelancer, you should be aiming to create a 6-star experience SO smooth and thoughtful that your clients would feel stupid NOT referring you. This week's podcast episode is full of ways to create that 6-star client experience. Easy to implement - but 99% of freelancers will NEVER do it. I'm breaking down: What to do RIGHT after you take payment that instantly reverses any buyer's remorse The surprise and delight offboarding that triggers your client's “natural referral instinct” The post-project nurture system that turns one client into many For full show notes, visit https://6figurecreative.com/379
